  Entity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The word entity is often useful when one wants to refer to something that could be a human being, a non-human animal, a non-thinking life-form such as a plant or fungus, a lifeless object, or even a belief; for instance.
Sometimes, the word entity is used in a general sense of a being, whether or not the referent has material existence; e.g., is often referred to as an entity with no corporeal form, such as a language.
Entity is the root node of the SUMO, and stands for the universal class of individuals.

 Entity Management in SGML
SGML was originally developed to meet the requirements of publishers -- that is, people who own information and need to process it in multiple formats and disseminate it in a variety of media.
SGML resolves this conflict by interposing the entity structure as a virtual storage system between the element structure(s) and the real storage system(s); that is, the file system, data base, distributed object store, etc. The portion of an SGML system that maintains the relationship between entities and real storage is known as the "entity manager".
Every entity that is declared or referenced explicitly in an SGML document has a natural entity name that is unique within the name space in which it occurs (that is, within the document or subdocument).

 Comparison of SGML and XML
General entity references in content are required to be synchronous
The entity manager should be able to recognize the encoding declaration in the XML declaration and encoding PI and use it to determine the encoding of entity
It could be an application convention that entity references are replaced in PIs.

 A taxonomy of SGML entities
Entities resolve to a sequence of characters, which are scanned for markup and data, and may reference other entities.
A parameter entity cannot be used as a general entity, or vice versa.
Conversely, it is possible to declare a parameter entity and a general entity with the same name.

 A brief SGML tutorial
Character entities are numeric or symbolic names for characters that may be included in an HTML document.
We discuss HTML character entities in detail later in the section on the HTML document character set.

 RFC 1866 (rfc1866) - Hypertext Markup Language - 2.0
SGML document A sequence of characters organized physically as a set of entities and logically into a hierarchy of elements.
SGML is a system for defining structured document types and markup languages to represent instances of those document types[SGML].
SGML Documents An HTML document is an SGML document; that is, a sequence of characters organized physically into a set of entities, and logically as a hierarchy of elements.

 &sp; Technical Reference
The mechanism of entities is used to represent data, that generally speaking could be residing in one or more files or, say, extracted and assembled on-the-fly from a database.
An SGML entity can thus be anything from a single character to several files, and the SGML system is not aware of the underlying physical structure in any way whatsoever.
An idea that is central to SGML is the concept of a document type definition: each document belongs to a class of similar documents, which all share the same logical structure and set of tags.

 SGML Character Names   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
This entry says that there is an SGML entity named "alpha", which represents the character known in English as "small alpha, Greek".
To use an SGML entity on a journal page, you have to start it with an "and" and end it with a ";".
So the SGML for the greek letter alpha is "andalpha;" (Leave off the quote marks!) Including an SGML entity in the journal's RTF template is a bit different.

 [No title]
The Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) is used to encode document structure and a rigorous description of it is left to [ISO- 8879].
The Text/SGML media-type can be employed when the contents of the SGML entity is intended to be read by a human and is in a readily comprehensible form.
Those entities may contain and such systems may permit explicit system level commands to be execute while processing the data.

It is a functional language based on SQL, which enables complex operations on SGML documents, for instance: (1) extraction of parts of an SGML document that satisfy given criteria; (2) tests, counts, and various other computations on SGML elements in a document; (3) construction of new elements and documents using the result of queries.

SGML decl for Japanese, from SP 1.1.2; viz.
The allowed content models in both SGML and XML are restricted by a requirement of determinism, which means that a parser recognizing document element contents has to be able to decide without lookahead, which content model token to match with the current input token, while processing the document from left to right.

 Parsing Example
An HTML user agent should use the SGML declaration that is given in 9.5, "SGML Declaration for HTML".
The `NAMELEN' parameter in the SGML declaration (9.5, "SGML Declaration for HTML") limits the length of an attribute value to 1024 characters.
Unfortunately, the use of the `&' character to separate form fields interacts with its use in SGML attribute values as an entity reference delimiter.
